Brooks Birthday

Brooks' birthday started out the way all birthdays start at our house..........................CUPCAKES for breakfast!Of course I have to have enough for everyone.We decided to let Brooks have his big gift before school, because he would have seen it when he went outside.Brooks got a trampoline!He had to jump awhile before school. We had allowed plenty of time because we knew he would be so excited.
He even let his brothers jump.

Finally after school and soccer he got in some good jumping time.


We went to the Last Steep for his birthday dinner. One of the 2 restaurant open during off season.Brothers
Then home and time for CAKE!
I have lots more pictures, I just wanted to spread them out so this wasn't a really long post!

Sea World

Where we stayed in San Diego was at Mission Beach, which put us exactly 5 minutes to Sea World. It was cool to be so close. The boys were excited and we had to see the Shamu show.
They are pretty amazing.

Brooks was so excited to get splashed. He got a little wet, but not crazy wet.
Watching the dolphins. The dolphin show was getting a new stadium so it was closed, but you could still see them in a habitat that was open and they would swim very close. Cooper got splashed by a dolphin. He did not think much of that.
Brooks trying to feed a sting ray. He would hold the fish, but would not put his hand down when a ray came to him. I don't blame him, I wouldn't do it either.
Cooper would! He pet them and tried to feed them, but he usually dropped the fish before they took it from him.
Ty thought about it, but was much better at feeding the sea lions because he could just throw it to them from the rail.Daddy feeding some sting rays

There were so many things for them to explore and do besides the animals.
The boys stopped at the arcade for some game time. Ty loves whack a mole. It was fun that they were all big enough to play. At least we knew one of our boys would win the prize.And the winner was COOPER!
The bear he won was bigger than him! The two big boys were a little disappointed, but they handled it well.Caring away his winnings! Now we just had to figure a way to get it on the plane, luckily we still check car seats so it rode in Cooper's car seat bag.
Next it was time for some rides.

Mimi riding the tea cups with the boys.
We were a little worried about Cooper because he gets motion sick like his dad, but he did fine.
Look no hands
We had a lot of fun at Sea World.

Just a few more pictures of our time at the beach.


Burying Brooks

Big foot Cooper crushing all the sand castlesTy's turn to get buried
They do love to play together.

Ty got smart and spent a lot more time in the sand instead of the water.
